Incredible new quilted throws by David Bromley!

Yeah yeah, it's Bromley all over the blog today.... whatcha gonna do? I can't help it if he keeps making all this awesome stuff now can I?

SERIOUSLY how inspired are these brand new Bromley-ified quilts!? Utilising vintage fabrics collected by David over a lifetime, and handcrafted responsibly in India, they feature DB's unmistakeable motifs - nudes, butterflies, storybook-inspired characters. You wouldn't think it would work... but.. it SO does! And priced from $800, it's the cheapest way I can think of to get your hands on a Bromley painting!

These unique pieces have literally just landed. They officially launch THIS THURSDAY, and are available to purchase from this Friday April 8th at Capocchi in Armadale. (SO don't go in today but you can go on the weekend :)

For a little more background about David's inspiration for the new quilts, and more stunning photographs of these beautiful pieces, please pop over to the Guest Blog today!

Quilts in progress in India! LOVE those cheeky smiles on the ladies' faces! I'm thinking they never made a quilt quite like that before :)
